Around 4am on the morning of January 20, 45-year-old Dominik Perez was hit by two cars and killed while riding on the BQE near this entrance. His ghost bike commemorates Brooklyn’s second cyclist death in 2011 (the other being Jerome Johnson). Happily, there have been no cyclist deaths in Brooklyn since—must be all the new bike lanes.

Streetsblog has this video from the Memorial Ride and the installation of the Borough Hall Ghost Bike for unnamed cyclists and pedestrians.
